Lol, in Dutch the app description says Adobe Reader is "The best PDF viewing experience on Android smartphones en tablets".

I would like to recommend EZ PDF reader for $0.99 in the market. Don't know if it has been optimized for tablets yet I must admit.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sciguy831:
I already posted this question in another thread but I figured this is the appropriate place for this question:

I'm a bit of a newb when it comes to rooting, but I ran into some trouble while I was perm rooting my g2 and I haven't been able to find a solution. I was following the temp to perm root method that g2hacks.com broke down simple, (g2hacks(dot)com/g2-hacks/how-to-root-g2-phone. While watching thier youtube video, I made it all the way to step 18 typing "/data/local/tmp/root" into terminal emulator. But right after I hit enter, a bunch of lines of errors popped up saying ""killall: can't kill pid 7891: No such process" all the way up to pid 7926. I continued anyway with #sync, and after I rebooted my phone I tried to use superuser but when I type "su" into terminal emulator it says permission denied. It looks like the phone is rooted cause now instead of the "#" prompt in terminal emulator it first starts with "$ $ " then goes to "$" after I try to do something. What went wrong, and how do I get it to work? Am I able to do everthing over again, or should I try again from a later step? Please help! Even if someone can tell me it won't hurt to do it all over again, that would be great. Thanks
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
If you don't have SU permissions, you aren't rooted.

I would guess you need to start over, but I'm not familiar with the procedure on the webpage you posted. I would recommend using the rage/gfree method. I think many/most on here agree its the safest and most up-to-date method:

Hello guys,

i am thinking about selling my Kindle to buy Nook color for a tablet usage + ebook reader. I saw many honeycomb OS videos on nook and it looks smooth enough even though it's preview build.

do you guys think it's not bad idea to use nook color as tablet?

BTW i am using evo 4g with CM7/wimax for my phone.

Ok. I tried using the AIO tool box thing and ended up bricking it. I knew I should have stuck with the old way. Anywho.

I've gotten the resistors and tried to get it into download mode to no avail. (It won't power up). Has anyone been unlucky enough to not get the jig thing to work? Any other ideas?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlakeACullum:
Are you using the 100 ohm, or the 100k ohm? I bought the 100 ohm first and they did not work. Went back and got the 100k ohm and viola!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aron1980:
I'm using the correct ones. I even had to use some of the 1K resistors to get it up to the proper ohms. I've currently tried it at 298K, 300K, 301K, and now 302K. I've been reading for the past hour and trying all sorts of things, but to no avail. I think this may end up as an insurance claim....
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
I have never had it not work. I did have one issue that was resolved buy using a pair of gloves as you can not be touching certin parts when you do it. I used the 100k set from radio shack. Twist 3 together and make sure your touching the right points on the usb or the port.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phrenicthenub:
Wouldnt it be better to just try a pre made jig for 10$ that has been tested before going to insurance?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aron1980:
Thanks for the replies folks. I do believe I am going to buy a jig first and give that a whirl. I've tried everything I can think of with those resistors, but with no luck. My buddy works at AT&T and he recommends just calling insurance and having it replaced. I think the correct jig is worth the try though.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nzahorchak:
I made a working jig, it's pretty straight forward. Only problem is it will not work if the device is showing absolutely no signs of life.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hkstylo:
When I went to radioshack, i saw that there were both 100k ohm resisters at 1/2 watt adn 100k ohm resisters at 1/4 watt.....

...a little confused as to which one's i'm suppose to get to make a jig!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TRusselo:
try one of the many how to threads and or youtube videos!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nzahorchak:
I don't think it really matters, as I've seen people say they've used both. I used the 1/4 watt and it worked perfectly. I also bought a 301k off ebay because the former RadioShack Canada, now The Source, charges $5 for an assorted package and only comes with 2 100k, so I'd have to buy 2. The 301k on ebay was 99 cents for 5.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ralexand:
I'm in your exact situation OP. Was flashing the speedmod kernel yesterday via Odin3 1.7 and for some odd reason it just didnt worked (Success 0 / Failed 1). So I had to unplug from Odin. Next thing I know i'm looking at the phone/!/computer screen.

None of the button combos that I tried from suggestions in other threads worked. This morning I went out and bought the resistors and I have spent the last hour trying to get it to work. NO LUCK.

Now I've ordered a $10 jig of ebay. It should arrive Wed or Thurs. I'll post the results here to let you know if it worked or not. In the meantime, I'm going to keep trying my jig.

UPDATE (a few hours after original post):

So, I took apart the jig, tried again to no avail. Then I took the tape off and soldered the connections. I noticed that when hitting the 3-5 copper plates, it was going to the "brick" screen, so I knew the jig was working. I just kept trying -- taking the battery out, try again. Rinse & repeat for about 15 minutes and out of nowhere DOWNLOAD MODE! I couldn't believe it. So, the moral of the story, keep messing with the jig, keep taking the battery out, and have about 6 hours of spare time.

[Venue Pro General] goldaar:
Engadget has the new press release announcing the availability of the Venue Pro in the UK. In the release they are none to shy to state the magical 512mb number. If I remember correctly, Europe is a lot less friendly to false claims, so this should prove worthwhile.

http://www.engadget.com/2011/02/28/dell-venue-pro-arrives-in-the-uk-at-long-last-459-off-contract/
[Venue Pro General] efjay:
It wont make any difference to US devices as there is no where claimed by Dell that it has 512MB RAM. For the UK, its a different matter and they would be in trouble if they tried to pull the wool over their eyes like they did with us.
[Venue Pro General] lenioia:
I have almost no doubt there are phisically 512mb of ram inside any DVP shipped or shipping. The problem is why the OS seems unable to see them all, are they defective, or is there a problem with some driver? Dell seemed to imply a software update could fix the issue but no official statement on this being fixed yet. We'll know only when the first UK venue reaches its owner.
[Venue Pro General] frazell:
We know now. The Indian version has NoDo installed as well we newer firmware and shows up as 512MB of RAM.

We will get it when NoDo gets to us. Now lets hope that isn't long.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] T0mTomm:
So I got a notification today that there was an OTA for my HTC Desire. So seeing as I am running the stock HTC Sense ROM (although I am rooted) I downloaded it however upon trying to install the update it failed and I was stuck at a screen with the android logo and a warning sign> I managed to exit this via clockworkmod recovery. Now when I boot into hboot it finds the PB99IMG.zip and tries to install it after realizing this I tried the same method using my goldcard however again it failed. This method also fails and I can no longer get to clockwork mod.

Does anyone know either how I can install this update or how I can find the zip to get rid of it as the only way I can think of (and this is because im a n00b) is to unroot, install the update then re-root.

Thanks

Hello all, I will be getting the Inspire in two weeks as well as getting the 200mb data plan also.

I've never had a data plan before so I wanted to know how much data the weather widget takes up as well as Gmail and Facebook updates.

You can sign up for the 200 and go into your account and change it to the 2gb plan if you are using more which is likely.
[HTC Inspire 4G] baconissweet:

Thanks for the replies guys, but are you really sure I'm going to go over?

I receive less than 3 emails a day, I usually receive less then 5 Facebook notifications a week, I'm never going to surf the web on the network, I'm never going to download apps on the network, and I will most surly never stream video or music on the network.

Will just weather and 2-3 emails a day run me over?
[HTC Inspire 4G] ibby03:
You'll be fine as far as usage goes if its based on what you posted. And like said before, you can always move it up to the 2gb. However if it was me I'd start with the higher plan and move down to better determine my usage.
[HTC Inspire 4G] mudknot2005:
Keep in mind the overage charges as well. Also keep in mind that there are apps that use your data even when your connected to WiFi.
[HTC Inspire 4G] mcca555:
I have used 27.7 MB of 200 for billing cycle FEB 21st - MAR 2st

That's about 1 week so 30MB * 4 week = 120 MB

I don't count on going over

I turn off autosync and background sync while on mobile network

and flip it back on while on Wifi

Thus on 3g i only get email when i manually refresh and on wifi i get instant notification

Of note... gmail offers forwarding of emails as text to your phone which is free... assuming u have unlimited texting. Thus, i can receive an email text and if important i can flick 3g on and open up gmail app

Ok cool, thanks for the help. I didn't know about the sms thing, but thats great.

You can certainly get by on that if you turn off sync and mobile data when you aren't using it or are not on wifi.

Hey guys,

I cant seem to get anything to work.

I have downloaded ROM Manager and Verizon Tab bootstrapper.

I tried to do a backup in ROM Manager, installed Clockwork mod, then try do a backup of ROM. It said it was successful but nothing showed up under backpack. I tried to install a ROM and it just kept reloading my original stock after reboot.

After that, I read somewhere that ROM Manager is useless without bootstrapper. I downloaded that and I did the bootstrap recovery, and then i tried to go into recovery mode. It just froze on Motorola sign.

Then I tried just doing bootstrapper and then doing a backup rom in ROM Manager, and it freezes at the Motorola sign. What am I doing wrong here?

[Vibrant Accessories] rizoh66:
Does anyone know if the USB to HDMI cable has been released? Or is this just another so called promise from Samsung?
[Vibrant Accessories] rabeatz:
I've never seen any official specs that said it supports it, so technically it wasn't promised. It was rumored about alot and tons of news articles about it from that rumor, but afaik the only thing that said the vibrant would support HDMI out was a tweet putting us on the compatibility list. Samsung later confirmed that they mistakingly included the Vibrant on that list.

I'd love to have HDMI out too, so I can always hope that's wrong, but at the same time, have you ever tried TV out? Most of the things you'd want to use it for don't support it. Most the games I play when I have 'TV-out' on display on the TV "This application does not support TV-Out". Same thing when you try to watch Avatar or other movies. If that's how it will be with the HDMI out, it's not even worth the hassle.
[Vibrant Accessories] rabeatz:
There are also a bunch of articles coming out saying that the Galaxy S II is the first to use the dual port - usb / hdmi, so if that's the 'first' it sounds like we're SOL .

[Vibrant Accessories] rizoh66:
Thanks all... I have tried the TV out and I am just looking for a better picture than it provides. I really doubt that I will be picking up another samsung phone, especially one from T-Mobile. After getting over the release of 2.2, I'm now bitter about the release of the Vibrant 4G. I feel like I was a guinea pig for both companies.
[Vibrant Accessories] epakrat75:
Good luck with your new phone / provider. You'll likely be treated to more of the same if not worse. In the Galaxy S saga, Verizon customers got the short end of the stick. T-Mobile customers may have had it the best . AT&T users probably 2nd after than followed by Sprint for 3rd. This outlook comes from working with people who have all these phones and talking to them daily. I'm thankful that I'm with T-Mobile but not thrilled having gone with Samsung.

Anyone who decides to become an early adopter for a new product series / line is in effect "a guinea pig" but this is nothing new. If you're bitter because you desire the features the 4G adds then that's silly since there's always something new coming out. Not much you can do about it.
[Vibrant Accessories] rizoh66:
I do agree that T-Mobile is my best option. Hell, they've replaced my Vibrant 3 times already. I doubt that the other carriers would be so gracious. I said that I will not be picking up another samsung phone, not switching carriers for a new version of the phone.

As for being a guinea pig for the manufacturers, I understand this. However, there are things that are unacceptable for us guinea pigs, such as the empty promises and hardware that doesn't even work correctly, i.e. GPS. And I am not bitter because of 4G or even the ffc. I'm bitter because the Vibrant 4g is exactly the same as the 3G except for these features. It's almost as if they took all of the issues and complaints form the 3G owners and used the leftover 3G pieces and implemented the correct hardware 6 months later.

I'm not bitter, I'm just not a customer of Samsung's any longer. The samoled screen doesn't mean that much to me.

Thank god for Team Whiskey and the other development teams. And thank god for Android!
[Vibrant Accessories] Slashazard:
I totally understand that guinea pig feeling. I had a Moto Cliq before I got the Vibrant. Next Moto phone after that was the original Droid. That took off and the Cliq was practically forgotten.

Hi everybody.

i just flashed back to stock rom and want to give it a try. since right after i bought the phone i always had cooked roms on it and they all came with an autoinstall feature. now after hard resetting i face installing a lot of cab files and certainly don't want to do it manually.

i tried renaming my AutoInstall folder to 2577, hoping it would be processed then (it didn't), i looked through the entire rom for a similar feature, found none. can anyone tell me, how to get an entire folder of cabs installed?

- could anyone upload their autoinstaller, for instance from NRG or cloudy rom?

- is there a stock way to process a folder of cabs?

- is there maybe a portable tool (Autoinstall.exe) available somewhere?

- could autorun.exe files, that often come with a 2577 folder of satnav software process all cabs in their folder? if so, could someone please upload one?

thanks in advance
